PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENT

I see that once again they are going after professional athletes for taking performing enhancing substances. Persecuting them for taking substances that make them do their jobs better. What a bunch of bullmalarkey. WGAS-WGAF! (who gives a sh*t-who fives a f*ck!) I'll tell you who needs to find substances to take that would make them do their jobs better........POLITICIANS!!!!!
Boy I'll tell you, if there were substances out there that could make me feel the music better, substances that could enhance my state of consciousness and put me in the zone to play and perform better, substances that could block all the day to day clutter in my mind and open up that direct connection needed to write better songs, well I'd take those substances in a heartbeat. Um......wait a minute.....strike that.......there is and I have *LOL*

RAY LEWIS, FOOTBALL, MURDER AND GOD


After The Baltimore Ravens won the Super bowl on February 3, 2013 Ray Lewis was quoted as saying,

“It’s simple, when god is for you who can be against you?” 

In a pre-super bowl interview Ray Lewis was asked if he had anything to say to the families of the two murder victims from Atlanta in 2000 that he was accused of being involved in.  His response was as follows,

“It’s simple, God has never made a mistake. That’s just who he is, you see. And if our system – it’s the sad thing about our system – if our system took the time to really investigate what happened 13 years ago, maybe they would have got to the bottom line truth. But the saddest thing ever was that a man looked me in my face and told me, ‘We know you didn’t do this, but you’re going down for it anyway.’ To the family, if you knew, if you really knew the way God works, he don’t use people who commits anything like that for His glory. No way. It’s the total opposite."

Overall the American culture has evolved over the last 25 years to a point of not only giving thugs and gangsters respect but even sometimes rewarding them.  Much of the dress code and dialect of our youth comes directly out of prison culture and somewhere along the way it has become part of the American culture to give respect to unintelligence and criminality.  It seems to me that a whole generation or two has completely lost their way and lost sight of proper goals and what should be important in life.  I won’t even begin to go into all that as it’s a much bigger subject and a much larger sociological problem, but I will say that Ray Lewis was as much a part of all that as anyone.  He might not have pulled the trigger that killed those two men, (no one knows really,) but he was enjoying the gangsta lifestyle.  He was a success story from, “da hood,” and at the very least he was hanging around with thugs who carry guns to nightclubs and pull them out and start shooting other people at  the first perceived notion that they are somehow being disrespected.  And I’m sure that with all the money he was throwing around he was getting plenty of attention and respect from those hoodlums and he was loving it.  But he was young and I really can’t even fault him for that.  We all mature and become better men and women over time.  He is obviously a different man than he was back then.

But what I can fault him on is how nonchalantly he throws his deity into everyone’s face.  Take notice of how he begins both of the aforementioned quotes with the words, “it’s simple,” as if any of this really is.  I think the only thing that is simple here is Ray Lewis’s mind.  Ray Lewis is obviously simple-minded.  I can understand that what he was trying to say in regard to the murders is that he was found innocent because his god doesn’t make mistakes.  That in and of itself is a totally ridiculous statement that I’m sure a lot of incarcerated people would disagree with but doesn’t Mr. Lewis realize what a slap in the face that statement was to the families of the two murder victims?  Doesn’t he realize that by saying what he said he’s also saying that his god decided it was right for those two guys to die?  It just seems to me that Mr. Lewis is so intent on putting his god views into everything he says that he has completely removed the significance of his god.  His god cares more about football games than he does about little girls being raped and murdered in the Middle East for the simple crime of wanting to become educated?  His god cares more about overpaid athletes that live a luxurious, lavish lifestyle than he cares about people going hungry in the drought areas of Africa?  His god cares more about a football game than he cares about the earthquake victims in Haiti?  And not all football games mind you, not all football teams and not all football players but only the particular football team that Ray Lewis happens to play on.  In Ray Lewis's simple-minded view his god cares more about Ray Lewis and The Baltimore Ravens than he cares about any other football player, football team and of course anything else that might be happening in the world.  All I can say is GIVE ME A BREAK!!  I don’t begrudge anyone the right to believe in a higher power or to seek spiritual guidance but when you reduce the power that the deity of your beliefs wields to such a ridiculously low level you remove all credibility for the possible existence of your deity in my eyes.  When you tell the world that your deity cares more about you and whatever is going on in your life than it does about anyone or anything else, you are simply proving to me that you are delusional.  Your god exists in your mind and your mind only!

As a Ravens fan I am happy that my team won the Super Bowl but I’m intelligent and rational enough to know that it had nothing to do with the power of a god.  I, for one, am glad that the career of Ray Lewis is over because I don’t think I could sit through much more of his holier-than-thou, pious ranting.  I wish him no ill will and I actually hope that his beliefs bring him peace and contentment in his retirement.  But I am very happy that I will never again have to endure his delusionary ramblings.

Way to go ravens!!  Great team effort!!  All human!!  No god involved!!

OH JEALOUSY


When a person with limited cognitive ability is jealous over the success, accomplishments and achievements of someone else, that jealousy can easily manifest itself in the form of anger and aggression. 

SO MANY OF THESE OUT THERE

There is nothing more sad than people who choose to remain ignorant and uninformed even after being presented with the facts!!

NO MORE DRIXORAL

I just discovered that we can no longer buy Drixoral. In fact they took it off the market in 2008. I didn't notice because I had bought a large stockpile of it and didn't need any. What a total bunch of bullshit!!! It's all because it has pseudoephedrine in it but that's also why it worked!! Who cares if a few people were making bathtub meth with it!! Why should I no longer be allowed to purchase a legal, over the counter cold remedy because a few people have figured out a way to get high from it. The rules this government has in regard to drugs absolutely suck!!!! WTF is wrong with the mind-set of this country? Who cares if some people are getting high as long as the majority of the people are using a drug to fight symptoms and illness. For that matter who cares if people are getting high?? Period!!! People have always gotten high and they always will. Little kids spin around until they are so dizzy they cannot stand up. That's getting high!!! It starts there!!! Should we outlaw spinning???!!! All of the crime related to drug use stems from the fact that they are illegal not from the use itself. The crime comes from the selling and obtaining of them. And now because of this paranoid, Ronald Reagan era, simpleton MADD type frame of mind we are no longer allowed to purchase a drug that actually works?? We are not allowed to take advantage of the benefits of our own science and technology?? Oh but I can go out and buy an assault rifle at a gun show with no background check and I can buy high capacity magazines and ammo online with no problems. OK right! god bless america. Land of the violent and the not so free.
